The Tape Gun is designed for dispensing compatible packaging tape during repetitive box sealing in nursery, garden-centre, warehouse and dispatch environments.
Practical packaging consumables help keep picking, packing and despatch organised while protecting suitable goods through handling and transport.
Selling quantity: 1 unit/roll.
Key benefits
Efficient carton sealing
Apply packaging tape to clean, dry carton surfaces and use enough tape to secure the closure for the expected handling conditions. A tape gun can improve speed and consistency when sealing repeated cartons.
Fragile-message tape provides a visible handling instruction but does not replace adequate internal protection for delicate goods.
Warehouse & dispatch practice
Match packaging to the product, route and expected handling. Clearly label consignments where necessary and keep packing benches organised so cutters, tape and loose materials do not create avoidable hazards.
Storage
Store packaging consumables clean and dry, away from conditions that may damage adhesives, cardboard or films. Rotate stock sensibly and protect rolls, cartons and bags from crushing or contamination before use.

Tape Gun FAQs
What is this product used for?
Dispensing compatible packaging tape during repetitive box sealing. What quantity am I buying?
The selling quantity is 1 unit/roll. Is the commercial box or pallet quantity the selling unit?
The selling quantity is shown in the product details above. How should packaging be stored?
Keep it clean and dry and protect it from crushing, contamination, excessive heat or other conditions that could affect performance. Can packaging replace proper product protection?
No. Select packaging and internal protection according to the product, route and expected handling conditions. Is this suitable for hazardous or regulated goods?
Do not assume so. Hazardous or regulated goods may require specialist approved packaging and handling procedures. How can packing waste be reduced?
Use appropriately sized packaging, avoid unnecessary material and follow local recycling or waste-segregation arrangements where applicable.
The The Landscraper Rake is designed for levelling, spreading and landscape surface preparation.
It is intended for practical professional horticultural, nursery, landscaping or garden use where the product matches the crop or maintenance task.
Key benefits
Raking & surface work
Use this rake for levelling, spreading and landscape surface preparation. Work with controlled strokes and choose a rake style appropriate to the material: lighter leaf and hay rakes suit loose material, while landscape rakes are intended for broader surface preparation and levelling tasks.
Avoid using the head as a lever against immovable objects or applying loads outside normal raking work.
Installation & routine checks
Inspect the product before use and make sure supporting structures or handles are secure. Check plant-support systems as crops gain weight and inspect hand tools for damage or looseness.
Storage & reuse
Clean the product after use where appropriate and store it protected from unnecessary weather or physical damage. Reuse crop-support products only where they remain serviceable and suitable crop-hygiene requirements can be met.

Unit price perThe Neutralizer Road Kit is a compact vehicle odour neutralising system designed for cars, saloons and standard-size SUVs. Rather than operating as a conventional fragranced car air freshener, the system uses an Electronic Molecule Evaporator (EME-320) together with a replaceable 20ml essential-oil cartridge to tackle unwanted odours inside the vehicle.
Developed specifically for vehicle use, the Road Kit has a much faster activation time than the larger Neutralizer systems. Natural accelerants within the Road Kit formulation allow the system to begin working in approximately 5 minutes.
The supplied 20ml Road Kit Cartridge contains The Neutralizer's blend of essential oils derived from plant materials including flowers, fruits, roots and other botanical sources.
The system is particularly useful where persistent smells build up inside an enclosed vehicle and a conventional hanging air freshener or fragrance spray simply masks the problem.
Why choose The Neutralizer Road Kit?
What's included in The Neutralizer Road Kit?
Once the original cartridge has been used, replacement 20ml Road Kit cartridges can be fitted without replacing the EME-320 unit.
How does The Neutralizer Road Kit work?
At the centre of the system is the EME-320 Electronic Molecule Evaporator. The device is designed to control the evaporation of the essential-oil formulation so that volatile components are dispersed through the vehicle interior.
The Road Kit formulation incorporates natural accelerants to reduce the activation period to approximately five minutes. This makes it better suited to vehicle use, where a long warm-up period would be impractical.
The manufacturer describes The Neutralizer as an odour-neutralising system rather than a conventional masking fragrance. This distinction makes the Road Kit particularly useful for persistent smells in enclosed vehicle interiors.
Using The Neutralizer Road Kit in your car
Fit the Road Kit cartridge to the EME-320 in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and position the assembled unit securely inside the vehicle using the supplied foam cup-holder adaptor.
The Road Kit is designed to connect to the vehicle's 12V electrical socket. Once powered, allow approximately five minutes for the unit and formulation to activate.
The system is designed to provide coverage for a standard-size saloon or SUV. Cartridge life will depend primarily on the amount of time the unit is operated.
Always position the unit securely so that it cannot interfere with the driver, pedals, controls or safe operation of the vehicle.
How long does a Road Kit cartridge last?
The supplied cartridge contains 20ml of The Neutralizer Road Kit formulation.
According to the manufacturer, one cartridge can last for up to 45 days when operated for approximately 2 hours per day.
When operated continuously, manufacturer guidance gives a total service life of approximately 80-92 hours. Actual cartridge life will therefore depend on the operating pattern.
Replacement Road Kit cartridges allow the EME-320 electronic unit to be reused once the original refill has been exhausted.
Suitable for persistent vehicle odours
Vehicle interiors contain upholstery, carpets, headlining and other materials that can retain unwanted smells. The Neutralizer Road Kit is designed for situations where these persistent odours require more than a conventional fragranced car air freshener.
Potential applications include vehicles affected by persistent:
Where the underlying source of an odour is contamination, damp, mould, spilled material or another physical problem, the source should also be identified and properly cleaned or corrected.
Replaceable 20ml Road Kit cartridges
The Road Kit is a refillable system rather than a single-use vehicle air freshener. Once the supplied 20ml cartridge has reached the end of its service life, it can be replaced with the dedicated RKC-20 Road Kit Cartridge.
Road Kit cartridges are specifically intended for the vehicle system, so use the correct replacement cartridge rather than cartridges intended for the Neutralizer Compact or Pro systems.

Unit price perThe TOPDON TC004 is a professional handheld thermal imaging camera designed to make temperature differences immediately visible. With a 256 x 192 infrared sensor, 25Hz refresh rate and temperature measurement from -20°C to 550°C, it provides a fast, non-contact way to identify hot spots, cold areas and abnormal temperature patterns across electrical equipment, heating systems, buildings, machinery and environmental control installations.
Thermal imaging can reveal problems that are difficult or impossible to identify through visual inspection alone. Instead of checking individual points with a conventional thermometer, the TC004 displays the temperature distribution across an entire area, making it easier to identify unusual heat patterns and investigate them further.
With ±2°C or ±2% measurement accuracy, automatic hot, cold and centre-point detection, adjustable emissivity and a rugged handheld design, the TC004 is a versatile inspection tool for professional maintenance, diagnostics and troubleshooting.
Why choose the TOPDON TC004?
Find temperature problems that cannot be seen
A thermal imaging camera converts infrared radiation emitted by surfaces into a visual temperature map. Warmer and cooler areas can therefore be identified across an entire scene rather than checking one location at a time.
This makes the TC004 useful when diagnosing electrical components, heating and cooling equipment, pumps, motors, pipework, insulation, machinery and environmental control equipment.
In horticultural and controlled-environment installations, thermal imaging can also provide a useful additional diagnostic tool for investigating heating systems, cooling equipment, ventilation components, electrical distribution equipment, pumps and other infrastructure.
256 x 192 high-resolution thermal imaging
The TC004 uses a 256 x 192 infrared detector, providing 49,152 thermal measurement pixels. Each pixel contributes temperature information to the resulting image, allowing temperature differences and patterns to be viewed across the inspected surface.
A 25Hz refresh rate keeps the thermal image responsive as the camera is moved, making it much easier to scan equipment and locate areas that require closer investigation.
Thermal sensitivity of ≤40mK helps the sensor distinguish subtle differences in surface temperature, which can be particularly useful during building, HVAC and equipment inspections where temperature variations may be relatively small.
Wide -20°C to 550°C temperature range
The TC004 measures surface temperatures from -20°C to 550°C, providing sufficient range for a wide variety of inspection tasks.
Measurement accuracy is specified at ±2°C or ±2% of the reading, whichever is greater, with a displayed temperature resolution of 0.1°C.
Adjustable emissivity allows the camera to be configured for different surface materials, helping improve the usefulness of temperature measurements when inspecting different objects.
Automatic hot & cold spot detection
The TC004 can display centre-point, maximum and minimum temperature readings while inspecting a scene. This allows the user to quickly identify the hottest and coldest areas without manually searching every point in the image.
Configurable high and low temperature alarms provide another useful diagnostic aid. When investigating equipment that should remain within a particular temperature range, the alarm function can help draw attention to abnormal readings.
Suitable for professional inspection & diagnostics
The TOPDON TC004 can be used across a broad range of inspection applications, including:
Thermal imaging should be used as a diagnostic aid rather than proof of a particular fault. An unusual thermal pattern can identify an area requiring further investigation, but the underlying cause should be confirmed using the appropriate inspection and testing methods.
Built for field use
The TC004 combines its thermal sensor with a rugged handheld body designed for professional inspection work. It carries an IP54 protection rating and is rated to withstand drops of up to 2 metres.
An integrated LED light provides additional illumination when working around dark machinery, electrical installations or other poorly lit inspection areas.
The rechargeable 5,000mAh battery provides extended cordless operation, allowing the camera to be carried between inspection points without requiring a permanent power connection.

TOPDON TC004 Thermal Camera FAQs
What is the resolution of the TOPDON TC004?
The TC004 has a native infrared resolution of 256 x 192 pixels, giving 49,152 individual thermal measurement points. What temperature range can the TC004 measure?
The TC004 measures surface temperatures from -20°C to 550°C. How accurate is the TOPDON TC004?
TOPDON specifies measurement accuracy of ±2°C or ±2% of the measured value, whichever is greater. What does the 25Hz refresh rate mean?
The thermal image is refreshed 25 times per second. This produces smoother real-time imaging when moving the camera across equipment or an inspection area. Can the TC004 automatically find the hottest point?
Yes. It supports centre-point, hot-spot and cold-spot temperature measurement, making it easier to locate temperature extremes within the image. Can I use a thermal camera to inspect electrical equipment?
Thermal imaging is widely used to identify abnormal temperature patterns in electrical equipment. Inspection of live electrical systems should only be carried out by appropriately competent personnel using suitable safe working procedures. Can the TC004 see through walls?
No. A thermal camera measures infrared radiation from surfaces. It can reveal surface temperature patterns that may indicate an underlying issue, but it does not see through walls or other solid materials. What is emissivity and why does it matter?
Different materials emit infrared energy differently. Adjusting the camera's emissivity setting to suit the surface being inspected can improve the usefulness and accuracy of temperature measurements. Is the TOPDON TC004 suitable for outdoor and workshop use?
The TC004 has an IP54 protection rating and 2 metre drop resistance, giving it a rugged construction suitable for professional inspection environments. It should still be used and stored within the manufacturer's specified operating conditions. What can a thermal imaging camera help diagnose?
It can help locate unusual hot or cold areas associated with electrical systems, machinery, heating and cooling equipment, insulation, pipework and other installations. Thermal findings should then be investigated to determine their underlying cause.
The Tree Cushion 2.5cm BLACK (Box of 100) is a tree support cushion intended for cushioning contact points in compatible tree-support installations.
Correct tree and shrub support helps newly planted or container-grown stock establish while reducing excessive movement at the root zone. Supports should hold the plant securely without creating unnecessary pressure on the stem or trunk.

Unit price perThe TrolMaster Aqua-X NFS-1 is a professional modular irrigation controller capable of managing up to 30 individual watering outputs while bringing irrigation scheduling, leak detection, watering confirmation and optional nutrient and substrate monitoring into one expandable control system.
Designed as the central controller for the Aqua-X irrigation system, the NFS-1 can automate 24V solenoid valves and compatible mains-powered pumps through optional TrolMaster control modules. This allows a single controller to manage multiple irrigation zones, rooms, nutrient tanks or other independently scheduled watering circuits.
Irrigation can be configured using conventional scheduled watering events or repeating cycle timers, allowing the system to accommodate anything from straightforward daily irrigation through to frequent short-duration watering strategies.
The system can also be expanded beyond basic irrigation control. Optional TrolMaster sensors allow the Aqua-X to monitor nutrient-solution pH, EC and temperature, while Water Content Sensors can provide information about moisture levels within the growing substrate.
The NFS-1 includes a TrolMaster WD-1 Water Detector and Touch Spot as standard, providing both leak detection and the ability to confirm that irrigation water actually reached the monitored point.
Why choose the TrolMaster Aqua-X NFS-1?
Control up to 30 irrigation outputs
The Aqua-X NFS-1 can control up to 30 individual outputs by connecting compatible TrolMaster control modules. This makes it suitable for installations ranging from a relatively simple automated watering system to larger multi-zone irrigation layouts.
TrolMaster's OA6-24 Control Board provides six individually controlled 24V outputs for compatible solenoid valves, while other Aqua-X modules allow compatible pumps and powered irrigation equipment to be incorporated into the system.
A maximum of five compatible control modules can be connected to the NFS-1, with the combined system supporting up to 30 independently controlled outputs.
Flexible irrigation scheduling
The NFS-1 supports both scheduled and repeating irrigation control, giving growers much greater flexibility than a conventional single-output timer.
Up to 12 individual customisable irrigation schedules can be configured to operate at selected times of day with different watering durations. TrolMaster also provides cycle timer functionality for repeating irrigation events.
ON durations can be configured down to 1 second, while repeating timer OFF periods can be set as low as 1 minute. This makes the Aqua-X particularly useful where irrigation needs to be delivered in short, accurately controlled events.
Water detector included
Every NFS-1 is supplied with a WD-1 Water Detector and Touch Spot. The detector can perform two important roles within an Aqua-X installation.
Leak detection
The Touch Spot can be positioned in an area where unwanted water would collect. If water is detected, the Aqua-X can provide an alert, helping identify leaks before they develop into a larger problem.
Watering confirmation
The WD-1 can alternatively be assigned to a specific irrigation output. When that output is activated, the system can use the detector to confirm that water actually arrived at the monitored location.
This is an important distinction because activating a pump or solenoid does not necessarily mean that water was successfully delivered. A blocked line, empty reservoir, pump problem or other irrigation fault can prevent delivery even though the controller operated correctly.
The NFS-1 can support up to 30 Water Detectors, allowing watering confirmation or leak monitoring to be expanded across a larger irrigation installation.
Expand into nutrient & substrate monitoring
The Aqua-X is more than an irrigation timer. Optional TrolMaster sensors allow the NFS-1 to become a central monitoring platform for both nutrient solution and growing-medium conditions.
pH, EC & nutrient temperature
One optional AMP-2 Sensor Board can be connected to the NFS-1. The AMP-2 supports compatible TrolMaster pH and EC/temperature probes, allowing nutrient-solution pH, electrical conductivity and temperature to be monitored continuously.
Substrate water content
The NFS-1 supports up to eight compatible Water Content Sensors, allowing growers to monitor moisture within the root-zone substrate and use the resulting information to better understand irrigation and dry-back behaviour.
These monitoring functions complement the irrigation controls, allowing watering schedules and actual crop conditions to be viewed within the same Aqua-X ecosystem.
Remote access with the TrolMaster app
When the NFS-1 is connected to a compatible internet service, the free TrolMaster smartphone app provides remote access to Aqua-X information and settings.
Growers can access irrigation settings, monitored sensor information, historical data and system alerts without needing to be physically beside the controller.
This is particularly useful for identifying irrigation failures, leaks or nutrient conditions that move outside configured limits.

Unit price perThe TrolMaster BETA-6 is a stand-alone 240V digital humidity controller designed to automatically operate a compatible humidifier or dehumidifier while providing separate humidity settings for day and night conditions.
Designed for straightforward environmental humidity management, the BETA-6 combines a digital controller, remote humidity sensor, automatic day/night detection and switched equipment output in one compact system.
Simply connect a suitable humidifier or dehumidifier to the controller, position the remote sensor within the growing environment and select the required humidity settings. The BETA-6 then automatically switches the connected equipment to maintain the selected relative humidity.
Separate day and night humidity targets can be programmed from 20-90% RH. The controller automatically changes between these settings according to the light condition detected by its photocell, making it particularly useful where humidity requirements or environmental behaviour differ between illuminated and dark periods.
Why choose the TrolMaster BETA-6?
Automatic humidifier & dehumidifier control
The BETA-6 can be configured according to whether the connected equipment is intended to add or remove moisture from the air.
Humidifying mode
When used with a compatible humidifier, the BETA-6 monitors the surrounding relative humidity and switches the equipment on when additional moisture is required.
Once humidity has risen sufficiently relative to the programmed target and controller deadband, the humidifier is switched off again.
Dehumidifying mode
When used with a compatible dehumidifier, the control logic is reversed. The BETA-6 activates the equipment when relative humidity rises above the required level and switches it off again once humidity has been reduced.
This dual functionality means the same controller can be used for either humidification or dehumidification applications.
Independent day & night humidity settings
Humidity behaviour often changes substantially between the illuminated and dark periods. As air temperature falls after the lighting period ends, relative humidity can increase rapidly, even without a major increase in the actual amount of moisture present in the air.
The BETA-6 allows separate humidity targets to be programmed for the day and night periods, giving the controller greater flexibility than a conventional single-setpoint humidistat.
Its photocell automatically identifies the light condition and selects the corresponding humidity setting. There is no need to manually change the controller twice a day or synchronise it with a separate timer.
16ft remote humidity sensor
The BETA-6 is supplied with a precision remote humidity sensor on a 16ft cable. This allows the sensing point to be positioned where environmental conditions are representative of the crop rather than immediately beside the controller.
Correct sensor positioning is important. Place it in a well-ventilated location around crop level while avoiding direct airflow from humidifiers, dehumidifiers, heaters, circulation fans, intake points or extraction systems.
The sensor should also be kept away from wet surfaces, direct spray and areas where condensation can form.
Stable control with a 5% RH deadband
The BETA-6 uses a 5% relative-humidity deadband around its control point. Deadband is important because environmental humidity naturally fluctuates and equipment should not repeatedly switch on and off every time the reading moves fractionally around the target.
By allowing a controlled differential between the switch-on and switch-off conditions, the BETA-6 provides more stable operation and helps reduce unnecessary rapid cycling of the connected equipment.
Suitable for controlled horticultural environments
The BETA-6 provides a straightforward solution wherever relative humidity needs to be automatically maintained without the complexity of a complete multi-device environmental controller.
UK 240V electrical version
This is the 240V version of the TrolMaster BETA-6 intended for UK electrical installations.
The BETA-6 uses a relay-switched output and is fitted with a 10A / 250V fuse. Always check the electrical requirements of the humidifier or dehumidifier before connecting it to the controller.
Particular care is required with dehumidifiers and other equipment containing compressors or motors. Their startup current can be considerably higher than the normal running current shown on the rating plate.
Equipment must remain within the controller's permitted electrical load. Where a device has a high starting current or exceeds the controller's switching capability, an appropriately rated external switching solution should be used instead.

TrolMaster BETA-6 Humidity Controller FAQs
Is this the UK version of the TrolMaster BETA-6?
Yes. This listing is for the 240V version intended for use with compatible UK electrical equipment and supplies. What does the TrolMaster BETA-6 do?
The BETA-6 monitors relative humidity and automatically switches a compatible humidifier or dehumidifier to help maintain the programmed humidity target. Can the BETA-6 control both humidifiers and dehumidifiers?
Yes. The BETA-6 can be configured for either humidifying or dehumidifying operation, depending on the equipment connected. Does the BETA-6 have separate day and night humidity settings?
Yes. Different humidity targets can be programmed for the illuminated and dark periods. How does the BETA-6 detect day and night?
A photocell detects the surrounding light condition, allowing the controller to automatically change between its programmed day and night humidity settings. What humidity range can be set?
The BETA-6 provides an adjustable humidity range from 20-90% RH. What is the humidity deadband?
The BETA-6 uses a 5% RH deadband. This provides a differential between switching conditions to prevent connected equipment rapidly cycling on and off around the selected humidity target. How long is the remote sensor cable?
The supplied remote humidity sensor has a 16ft cable, equivalent to approximately 4.9 metres. Where should I position the BETA-6 humidity sensor?
Position the sensor in a representative, well-ventilated area around crop level. Avoid direct airflow from humidifiers, dehumidifiers, heaters, intake or extraction equipment, and keep the sensor away from water spray and condensation. Does the BETA-6 need a Hydro-X controller?
No. The BETA-6 is a stand-alone humidity controller with its own sensor, display, settings and switched equipment output. Can a humidifier be connected directly to the BETA-6?
Yes, provided the humidifier is electrically compatible with the UK 240V BETA-6 and remains within the controller's permitted electrical load. Can a dehumidifier be connected directly to the BETA-6?
A compatible dehumidifier can be controlled directly provided its electrical characteristics are suitable. Compressor startup current should be checked carefully because it can be considerably higher than normal running current. What happens in humidifying mode?
The BETA-6 activates the connected humidifier when the measured relative humidity indicates that additional moisture is required to maintain the selected target. What happens in dehumidifying mode?
The BETA-6 activates the connected dehumidifier when relative humidity rises sufficiently above the programmed target, then switches it off again as humidity is reduced. Why use different humidity settings during the day and night?
Temperature and relative humidity often change significantly when lighting switches on or off. Independent day and night settings allow humidity management to be adapted to those changing environmental conditions.

Unit price perThe TrolMaster DCC-1 Dual Condition Adapter is designed for the Hydro-X environmental control system and allows a single connected device to be controlled by more than one environmental condition.
Standard Hydro-X Device Stations normally operate according to one environmental parameter, such as temperature or humidity. The DCC-1 adds another layer of control by combining two selected conditions, allowing equipment to operate only when the required combination of environmental conditions has been met.
This is particularly useful for equipment that influences more than one aspect of the controlled environment. Ventilation is a good example: an extraction fan can affect both temperature and humidity, so controlling it from a combination of these parameters can provide more intelligent operation than responding to either measurement alone.
The DCC-1 can be configured to work in AND or OR mode, giving the installer control over how the two environmental conditions interact before the connected device is activated.
Why choose the TrolMaster DCC-1?
AND or OR environmental control
The key feature of the DCC-1 is its ability to determine whether a connected device should operate according to two separate control conditions.
AND mode
In AND mode, both selected conditions must be calling for the equipment to operate before the DCC-1 activates the connected Device Station.
For example, if temperature and humidity are selected, an extraction device could be configured to operate only when the temperature is too high and the humidity is also above its target.
OR mode
In OR mode, either selected condition can call for the equipment to operate.
Using the same temperature and humidity example, the extraction equipment could operate when the temperature becomes too high or when humidity rises above its target.
This gives the installer much greater flexibility when deciding exactly how multifunction environmental equipment should respond.
Four selectable control conditions
The DCC-1 provides four control-condition selections that correspond with key Hydro-X control functions.
| Temperature | Allows the connected equipment to respond to the Hydro-X temperature-control condition. |
|---|---|
| Humidity | Allows operation to be linked to the Hydro-X relative-humidity control condition. |
| CO2 | Allows the device to respond to the controller's CO2 control condition where appropriate. |
| Program | Allows a programmed or timer-based condition to form part of the dual-control logic. |
Two of these conditions are selected and the DCC-1 then applies either AND or OR logic to determine when the connected equipment should operate.
Example: temperature & humidity ventilation control
Ventilation equipment can have a major influence on both air temperature and relative humidity. A standard single-condition controller may operate an extraction fan according to only one of those parameters.
The DCC-1 allows both conditions to be considered.
Temperature AND humidity
The extraction equipment operates only when both temperature and humidity have reached the conditions configured to call for ventilation. This can reduce unnecessary operation where only one parameter has moved away from its target.
Temperature OR humidity
The extraction equipment can operate as soon as either temperature or humidity reaches its configured control point. This can be useful where ventilation is required to correct either environmental condition independently.
The appropriate configuration depends on the environmental strategy and the equipment being controlled.
Designed to work with TrolMaster Device Stations
The DCC-1 is a control-logic adapter rather than a mains switching device. It is installed between the Hydro-X control system and the appropriate TrolMaster Device Station.
The Device Station then performs the actual equipment switching. This means the correct Device Station still needs to be selected for the electrical equipment and application.
For example, a suitable TrolMaster temperature, humidity or programme Device Station may be used depending on the equipment being controlled and the required installation.
Always check the electrical rating of the Device Station against the connected equipment. Motors, compressors and other inductive loads can have a starting current considerably higher than their normal running current.
Simple Hydro-X integration
The DCC-1 connects into the Hydro-X control network and provides selectable inputs for the environmental conditions that will form the dual-control rule.
Once the two required conditions have been selected, the DCC-1 is set to either AND or OR operation. The output is then connected to the appropriate TrolMaster Device Station controlling the equipment.
Because the DCC-1 deals with control logic rather than directly powering the environmental equipment, the electrical requirements of the connected load are determined by the Device Station or switching equipment used with it.

TrolMaster DCC-1 Dual Condition Adapter FAQs
What does the TrolMaster DCC-1 do?
The DCC-1 allows one compatible Hydro-X controlled device to respond to two different control conditions rather than being controlled by a single environmental parameter. What conditions can the DCC-1 use?
The DCC-1 provides selections for temperature, humidity, CO2 and program/timer control. Two conditions are selected for the required application. What does AND mode mean?
AND mode means both selected conditions must be calling for operation before the connected Device Station is activated. What does OR mode mean?
OR mode means either of the two selected conditions can activate the connected Device Station. Can I control a fan using both temperature and humidity?
Yes. This is a useful application for the DCC-1 because ventilation can influence both temperature and relative humidity. What is the difference between temperature AND humidity and temperature OR humidity?
With AND selected, both temperature and humidity conditions must call for operation. With OR selected, either condition can call for the connected equipment to operate. Does the DCC-1 switch mains equipment directly?
No. The DCC-1 handles the control logic. The connected equipment is switched through the appropriate compatible TrolMaster Device Station. Do I still need a Device Station?
Yes. The DCC-1 is used with a compatible TrolMaster Device Station, which performs the actual switching of the connected equipment. Can the DCC-1 vary fan speed?
No. The DCC-1 provides dual-condition control logic. Variable-speed EC fan control requires the appropriate TrolMaster fan-control hardware, such as an EFC-1 where compatible. Can the DCC-1 be used for CO2 control?
CO2 is one of the available control-condition selections, allowing it to be combined with another supported condition where appropriate for the equipment and control strategy. Can a timer be one of the two conditions?
Yes. Program/timer control is one of the selectable conditions, allowing equipment operation to depend on both a programmed period and another environmental condition. Why use dual-condition control?
Some environmental equipment affects several parameters at the same time. Dual-condition logic allows the system to consider two factors before deciding whether that equipment should operate. Is the DCC-1 useful for commercial environmental control?
Yes. It can provide more precise control logic in installations where equipment such as ventilation influences multiple environmental parameters and simple single-condition switching is not sufficient. Does the DCC-1 measure temperature, humidity or CO2 itself?
No. The DCC-1 does not replace the Hydro-X environmental sensors. It uses the control conditions generated by the Hydro-X system to determine when the connected Device Station should operate.

Unit price perThe TrolMaster DSP-2U 240V Program Device Station is a UK Type G programmable power-control module that allows compatible TrolMaster systems to automatically switch 240V equipment according to programmed time schedules.
Designed as a multi-function timer module, the DSP-2U provides a straightforward way to bring pumps, solenoid valves and other suitable time-controlled electrical equipment into a TrolMaster automation system.
Equipment connects directly to the UK Type G socket on the DSP-2U. The station then switches power to the connected device according to the schedule configured on the compatible TrolMaster controller.
The DSP-2 platform supports loads up to 10A and operates across 100-240V AC, 50/60Hz. This UK version uses the familiar three-rectangular-pin Type G socket and plug arrangement for 230-240V installations.
Why choose the TrolMaster DSP-2U?
Turn standard electrical equipment into a programmable device
The DSP-2U is designed for equipment that needs to operate according to time rather than an environmental measurement such as temperature, humidity or CO2.
Once the station has been connected and addressed, the compatible TrolMaster controller determines when the output should be energised. The DSP-2U then supplies mains power to the connected equipment during those programmed periods.
This makes it useful for equipment such as suitable irrigation pumps, electrically operated valves and other devices where automatic scheduled operation is required.
Suitable applications
The DSP-2U can be used with suitable 230-240V equipment provided the connected load remains within the station's electrical rating and is appropriate for switched operation.
The DSP-2U is an on/off power controller. It does not provide variable-speed control, variable-voltage control or proportional output.
LED status & manual override
The DSP-2 uses its LED indicator to provide immediate information about the station's operating condition.
| Fast flashing green | The station has not yet been addressed to the controller or communication with the controller has been lost. |
|---|---|
| Slow flashing green | The station is addressed and communicating correctly, but its switched output is currently off. |
| Solid green | The station is addressed, connected and its switched output is currently on. |
| Flashing red | The station has detected an overload condition. Disconnect power and investigate the connected load before resetting the station. |
Pressing and holding the station's button provides a manual on/off override, useful during setup, maintenance and equipment testing.
TrolMaster system compatibility
The DSP-2 Program Device Station is used across several TrolMaster control platforms, although the number of programmable outputs and available scheduling functions depend on the controller being used.
| Hydro-X | Compatible as a programmable timer-controlled device station. |
|---|---|
| Aqua-X | Compatible for timed irrigation equipment and other suitable scheduled devices. Program Device Stations can form part of the Aqua-X control-output network. |
| Green-X | Compatible. Green-X provides two dedicated program/timer device positions, while DSP-1/2 modules can also be used for timer-based irrigation control. |
Always configure the DSP-2U according to the instructions for the specific TrolMaster controller being used, as scheduling options and device capacities vary between systems.
10A switched output
The DSP-2 platform is rated for an output current of up to 10A. The connected equipment must remain within the electrical limits of the station.
Particular care should be taken with equipment containing motors, compressors or other inductive loads because starting current can be substantially higher than the normal running current shown on the equipment rating plate.
Where a device exceeds the DSP-2U's permitted load or has a high starting current, an appropriately specified external contactor or relay arrangement may be required instead of switching the equipment directly through the station.
Plug-and-play installation
Connect the DSP-2U to the appropriate device-control connection on the compatible TrolMaster controller using the supplied RJ12 cable and T-Splitter arrangement.
Once connected, press the addressing button to allow the controller to identify and assign the Program Device Station. The equipment to be controlled can then be connected to the DSP-2U's UK Type G output socket.
After addressing, configure the required program or irrigation schedule through the connected controller. Installation and electrical loading must comply with applicable electrical regulations and the requirements of the connected equipment.

TrolMaster DSP-2U Program Device Station FAQs
What does the TrolMaster DSP-2U do?
The DSP-2U allows a compatible TrolMaster controller to automatically switch suitable mains-powered equipment on and off according to a programmed time schedule. Is the DSP-2U the UK version?
Yes. The DSP-2U uses the UK Type G three-pin plug and socket format for UK 230-240V installations. What is the maximum load of the DSP-2U?
TrolMaster rates the DSP-2 Program Device Station at a maximum output current of 10A. The electrical characteristics and starting current of the connected equipment must also be considered. Can the DSP-2U control an irrigation pump?
Yes, a suitable pump can be controlled according to a programmed irrigation schedule provided its electrical load and starting characteristics remain within the DSP-2U's permitted limits. Can the DSP-2U be used with Aqua-X?
Yes. TrolMaster lists the DSP-2 as a compatible Aqua-X Program Device Station for controlling suitable scheduled equipment. Can the DSP-2U be used with Hydro-X?
Yes. The DSP-2 is part of the Hydro-X range of programmable device stations and can be used for equipment that needs to be controlled according to time. Can the DSP-2U be used with Green-X?
Yes. Green-X supports DSP-1 and DSP-2 Program Device Stations for programmable timer functions, including suitable timer-based irrigation equipment. Does the DSP-2U vary the speed of connected equipment?
No. It provides timed on/off mains switching. It does not provide variable-speed, variable-voltage or proportional control. Can I manually switch the DSP-2U on?
Yes. Pressing and holding the button on the station provides a manual on/off override, which is useful for equipment testing and maintenance. What does a flashing green light mean?
A fast flashing green LED indicates that the module has not been addressed or has lost communication with the controller. A slow flashing green LED indicates that it is connected and addressed but the output is currently off. What does a solid green light mean?
A solid green LED indicates that the DSP-2U is addressed, connected to the controller and its output is currently switched on. What does a flashing red light mean?
A flashing red LED indicates that the station has detected an overload. Disconnect the station from power and check the connected load before resetting it. Are the RJ12 cables included?
Yes. TrolMaster supplies the DSP-2 with a 16ft RJ12 cable, a 4ft RJ12 cable and an RJ12 T-Splitter. Can I connect equipment rated exactly at 10A?
The 10A figure is the station's maximum output-current rating. Equipment with motors or other inductive loads can draw significantly more current during startup, so the equipment's complete electrical specification should be checked rather than relying only on its normal running current. What is the difference between a Program Device Station and an environmental Device Station?
The DSP-2U switches suitable equipment according to a programmed time schedule. Other TrolMaster device stations are designed to respond to environmental parameters such as temperature, humidity or CO2.

Unit price perThe TrolMaster EFC-1 EC Fan Control Adapter provides variable-speed control of compatible electronically commutated fans using either PWM or 0-10V control signals, allowing ventilation to be integrated into compatible TrolMaster control systems.
Modern EC fans are designed to vary their speed through a low-voltage control signal rather than by reducing their mains supply voltage. The EFC-1 provides the interface between the TrolMaster controller and this variable-speed input, allowing fan output to be automatically adjusted as ventilation requirements change.
The EFC-1 can be configured for either PWM or 0-10V operation, making it suitable for a wide range of compatible EC ventilation fans. The fan retains its normal electrical supply while the EFC-1 manages the separate low-voltage speed-control signal.
On the TrolMaster Tent-X TCS-1, two EFC-1 adapters can be used, providing separate control of an exhaust fan and an intake fan. The EFC-1 is also supported by TrolMaster's Green-X GCS-1 greenhouse control system, where up to four standard EC fans can be independently connected through EFC-1 adapters.
Why choose the TrolMaster EFC-1?
What is an EC fan?
An EC fan uses an electronically commutated motor with integrated electronics to control motor operation. Many EC ventilation fans include a dedicated low-voltage speed-control connection that accepts either a 0-10V or PWM signal.
This allows fan speed to be varied electronically without repeatedly switching the fan's mains supply or using a conventional AC voltage-reducing speed controller.
The EFC-1 takes advantage of this control input, allowing a compatible TrolMaster system to request the fan speed required for the current environmental conditions.
PWM & 0-10V fan control
EC fan manufacturers use different low-voltage control methods. The EFC-1 supports the two common control types used by standard EC ventilation fans:
0-10V control
With a compatible 0-10V EC fan, the EFC-1 varies the analogue control voltage sent to the fan. The fan's electronics interpret that signal and adjust motor speed accordingly.
PWM control
For compatible PWM-controlled fans, the EFC-1 provides a pulse-width modulation control signal. The adapter must be configured for the appropriate mode to match the fan being connected.
Always confirm whether the fan requires PWM or 0-10V control before configuration. The fact that a fan uses an EC motor does not automatically confirm its control protocol or connector arrangement.
Intake & extraction control with Tent-X
The TrolMaster Tent-X TCS-1 supports up to two EFC-1 EC Fan Control Adapters. These are automatically assigned to the two dedicated ventilation functions:
| F1 | Exhaust / extraction fan |
|---|---|
| F2 | Intake fan |
Each ventilation line requires its own EFC-1. This allows intake and extraction airflow to be controlled separately rather than operating both fans from a single speed signal.
By varying fan speed rather than simply switching ventilation fully on or off, a compatible control system can provide smoother and more responsive airflow management.
Green-X EC fan control
The EFC-1 is also supported by the TrolMaster Green-X GCS-1 greenhouse controller. The GCS-1 can control up to four standard EC fans, with each fan connected through its own EFC-1 adapter.
This makes the adapter suitable for larger controlled horticultural environments where several independently managed ventilation fans are required.
TrolMaster Aero-Fan models use their own direct communication method and do not require an EFC-1 when connected to a compatible Green-X controller.
How the EFC-1 connects
The EFC-1 connects to the compatible TrolMaster controller through the controller's device network. The opposite side of the adapter connects to the compatible EC fan's low-voltage speed-control input.
A fan's main electrical supply remains separate. The EFC-1 is a control-signal adapter and does not provide mains operating power to the fan.
The EFC-1 package includes an RJ12-to-female-barrel cable. The exact connection required at the fan depends on the fan manufacturer's control interface, so its wiring and control specifications should be checked before installation.
Check EC fan compatibility
The EFC-1 is designed for standard variable-speed EC fans that accept a compatible PWM or 0-10V low-voltage control signal.
It is not a universal speed controller for conventional AC induction fans. Fans designed to have their mains voltage varied require a different type of controller.
Before installation, confirm the fan's control protocol, control-voltage requirements and connector or terminal arrangement. Where necessary, refer to the fan manufacturer's wiring information before making the control connection.

TrolMaster EFC-1 EC Fan Control Adapter FAQs
What does the TrolMaster EFC-1 do?
The EFC-1 allows a compatible TrolMaster controller to vary the speed of a standard EC ventilation fan using either a PWM or 0-10V control signal. What types of fan control does the EFC-1 support?
The EFC-1 supports compatible EC fans using PWM or 0-10V variable-speed control. The appropriate mode is selected to suit the connected fan. Can the EFC-1 control any EC fan?
No. The fan must provide a compatible PWM or 0-10V low-voltage speed-control input. Always check the specifications of the exact fan before installation. Can the EFC-1 control a normal AC fan?
Not if the fan requires its mains supply voltage or frequency to be varied for speed control. The EFC-1 is intended for EC fans with a compatible low-voltage control input. Does the EFC-1 power the fan?
No. The EC fan retains its normal electrical supply. The EFC-1 controls the separate low-voltage signal that tells the fan's integrated electronics what speed to operate at. What is 0-10V EC fan control?
A compatible EC fan interprets a variable low-voltage analogue signal to determine its required speed. The EFC-1 generates the appropriate control signal under instruction from the TrolMaster controller. What is PWM fan control?
PWM stands for pulse-width modulation. A compatible fan uses the characteristics of a pulsed control signal to determine the requested operating speed. Can the Tent-X control both intake and extraction fans?
Yes. The Tent-X TCS-1 supports up to two EFC-1 adapters. One is assigned as F1 for the exhaust fan and the second as F2 for the intake fan. Do I need two EFC-1 adapters for intake and extraction?
Yes. Each independently controlled standard EC fan line requires its own EFC-1, so separate intake and exhaust control requires two adapters. Can the EFC-1 be used with Green-X?
Yes. The Green-X GCS-1 supports up to four EFC-1 adapters, allowing up to four standard compatible EC fans to be independently controlled. Do TrolMaster Aero-Fans require an EFC-1?
Not when they are being used with a compatible controller that supports direct Aero-Fan communication. For example, the Green-X GCS-1 can communicate directly with Aero-Fans without an EFC-1 adapter. Why use variable-speed ventilation instead of simple on/off control?
Variable-speed control allows airflow to be adjusted to suit current requirements instead of repeatedly operating the fan at full output. This provides more flexible ventilation management when used with a compatible control system. What cable is supplied with the EFC-1?
TrolMaster supplies the EFC-1 with an RJ12-to-female-barrel connection cable. The connection required at the fan itself depends on the specific fan model. How do I know whether my fan uses PWM or 0-10V?
Check the fan manufacturer's technical specifications or wiring diagram. The EFC-1 must be configured to match the control method required by the connected fan.

Unit price perThe TrolMaster HS-1 Humidistat Station allows the Hydro-X environmental control system to directly control compatible commercial dehumidifiers equipped with a 24V low-voltage humidistat connection.
Many larger commercial dehumidifiers provide low-voltage terminals that allow an external humidistat to control the unit. The HS-1 connects to these terminals in the same way as a conventional external humidistat, while allowing humidity control to be managed centrally by the TrolMaster Hydro-X.
This approach avoids switching the dehumidifier's high mains current through a plug-in control module. Instead, the HS-1 uses the dehumidifier's dedicated 24V control circuit, making it particularly suitable for high-capacity commercial dehumidification equipment with substantial running and inrush current.
Separate day and night humidity targets can be configured through the Hydro-X. The HS-1 then operates the connected dehumidifier according to the required humidity setpoint.
Why choose the TrolMaster HS-1?
How the HS-1 controls a dehumidifier
A compatible commercial dehumidifier has a low-voltage control terminal designed for connection to an external humidistat. The HS-1 is wired to this control connection and effectively replaces the conventional stand-alone humidistat.
The HS-1 is then connected to the Hydro-X through the controller's device network. Humidity settings are configured through the Hydro-X rather than independently at the dehumidifier.
When the current measured relative humidity rises above the selected setpoint, the HS-1 signals the connected dehumidifier to operate. Once humidity has been reduced to the required level, the system stops calling for dehumidification.
Local LCD humidity display
The HS-1 has its own LCD display, providing useful information directly beside the dehumidifier.
TrolMaster configures the display to show the humidity setpoint in the upper section and the current relative humidity in the lower section. This allows the operating condition to be checked locally without returning to the main Hydro-X controller.
Ideal for high-capacity commercial dehumidifiers
Large dehumidifiers can draw significant current, particularly when compressors start. This can make direct mains switching unsuitable for some conventional environmental-control modules.
The HS-1 avoids that issue by using the dehumidifier's own low-voltage external control connection. The HS-1 is therefore not carrying the compressor's mains electrical load.
This is the key difference between the HS-1 and a plug-in TrolMaster DSH humidity device station. A DSH module switches mains power to a connected humidifier or dehumidifier, while the HS-1 operates the dedicated 24V humidistat terminals provided on compatible commercial dehumidifiers.
24V dehumidifier compatibility
The HS-1 is designed for commercial dehumidifiers that provide a compatible 24V external humidistat terminal.
TrolMaster publishes connection information for commercial dehumidification equipment including compatible Quest and Anden systems, but compatibility should always be confirmed against the exact dehumidifier model before wiring.
A dehumidifier that only provides a mains plug and does not have a compatible low-voltage external humidistat connection will normally require a different TrolMaster control method.
Installation & connection
The HS-1 can be wall or surface mounted near the dehumidifier using its removable mounting bracket. The dehumidifier's low-voltage control wiring is connected to the appropriate terminals on the HS-1.
The HS-1 then connects to the Hydro-X device network using the supplied RJ12 cabling. Once connected, the addressing button is used to assign the HS-1 to the controller.
Because terminal functions and wiring arrangements can vary between dehumidifier manufacturers and models, the TrolMaster wiring diagram and the dehumidifier manufacturer's instructions should be followed during installation.
The HS-1 is designed for indoor use and should be protected from water, excessive heat and condensation.

TrolMaster HS-1 Humidistat Station FAQs
What does the TrolMaster HS-1 do?
The HS-1 allows a Hydro-X controller to operate a compatible commercial dehumidifier through its 24V external humidistat connection. What type of dehumidifier is the HS-1 designed for?
It is intended for larger commercial dehumidifiers equipped with a compatible 24V low-voltage terminal for an external humidistat. Does the HS-1 switch the mains power to the dehumidifier?
No. The HS-1 uses the dehumidifier's low-voltage humidistat control circuit rather than switching the high-current mains supply to the compressor. Why is low-voltage control useful for commercial dehumidifiers?
Large dehumidifiers can have substantial running and compressor inrush current. Using their dedicated low-voltage control connection avoids passing that mains load through an external plug-in switching module. Can the HS-1 control humidity automatically?
Yes. When measured humidity rises above the configured setpoint, the HS-1 calls for dehumidification. The connected dehumidifier then operates to bring humidity back towards the target. Can I use different humidity settings during the day and night?
Yes. The Hydro-X supports separate day and night humidity settings, allowing the HS-1 to control the dehumidifier against different targets during each period. What does the HS-1 display show?
The LCD displays the selected humidity setpoint in the upper section and the current measured relative humidity in the lower section. Will the HS-1 work with every dehumidifier?
No. The dehumidifier must provide a compatible 24V external humidistat connection. Always confirm compatibility with the exact dehumidifier model before installation. Can the HS-1 control Quest commercial dehumidifiers?
TrolMaster provides HS-1 wiring guidance for compatible Quest dehumidifiers. The exact model and terminal arrangement should still be checked before connection. Can the HS-1 control Anden dehumidifiers?
TrolMaster also publishes HS-1 connection guidance for compatible Anden dehumidifiers. Confirm the requirements of the specific model before installation. What is the difference between the HS-1 and DSH-1?
The HS-1 controls compatible commercial dehumidifiers through their 24V low-voltage humidistat terminals. The DSH-1 is a mains-powered device station that switches power to compatible plug-in humidification or dehumidification equipment. How does the HS-1 connect to Hydro-X?
The HS-1 connects to the Hydro-X device network using RJ12 cabling and is assigned an address using the button on the station. Are the connection cables included?
Yes. The package includes a 16ft RJ12 cable, a 4ft RJ12 cable and an RJ12 T-Splitter. Can the HS-1 firmware be updated?
Yes. The HS-1 includes Micro-SD firmware update capability. TrolMaster specifies a Micro-SD card of 32GB or less when carrying out compatible firmware updates. Can the HS-1 be installed in a wet area?
No. The HS-1 is intended for indoor use and should be protected from water, condensation and excessive heat.

Unit price perThe TrolMaster LMA-11 Lighting Control Adapter P is designed to connect compatible Phantom lighting ballasts to the TrolMaster Hydro-X environmental control system, allowing centralised lighting control from the Hydro-X controller.
The LMA-11 acts as the communication interface between the TrolMaster controller and compatible Phantom ballasts. Once installed, the Hydro-X can manage the lighting system's operating schedule and compatible output settings without having to switch the full mains load of the lighting equipment through the controller itself.
This makes the LMA-11 particularly useful in larger controlled-environment installations where several compatible Phantom ballasts need to operate together from one central lighting-control system.
The LMA-11 is a model-specific lighting adapter. It should only be specified for compatible Phantom lighting equipment using the appropriate control interface, rather than being treated as a universal ballast or LED controller.
Why choose the TrolMaster LMA-11?
Centralised Phantom ballast control
Individually controlling a large number of lighting ballasts can quickly become impractical. The LMA-11 allows compatible Phantom ballasts to become part of the TrolMaster lighting-control network so that lighting operation can be managed centrally.
The TrolMaster controller determines when the lighting system should operate and sends the appropriate control signal through the LMA-11 to the compatible ballasts.
This provides a cleaner approach to lighting automation while allowing the ballasts to retain their normal electrical supply.
Lighting output control
Where supported by the connected Phantom ballast, the LMA-11 allows compatible lighting output settings to be controlled through the TrolMaster system.
Central output control is useful where light intensity needs to be adjusted as the crop develops or where a large bank of fixtures needs to operate consistently at the same setting.
Actual available output levels depend on the compatible ballast being controlled, so the ballast manufacturer's specifications should always be checked when designing the lighting system.
How the LMA-11 works
The LMA-11 sits between the compatible TrolMaster controller and the Phantom ballast control network. It converts the lighting-control command from the TrolMaster system into the appropriate signal required by the compatible ballast.
The LMA-11 does not supply mains power to the ballast. The ballast and lighting equipment remain connected to their normal electrical supply, while the LMA-11 handles the low-voltage control communication.
Where several compatible ballasts are linked together, follow the lighting manufacturer's instructions for control cabling, daisy-chaining and maximum supported ballast quantities.
Important ballast compatibility
TrolMaster manufactures a range of LMA lighting adapters because different ballast and lighting manufacturers use different control protocols.
The LMA-11 is the "P" lighting adapter intended for compatible Phantom ballasts. It should not be assumed to work with another brand simply because that ballast is externally controllable or dimmable.
Always confirm the exact ballast model and its compatibility with the LMA-11 before installation. Other lighting brands and control protocols may require a different TrolMaster LMA adapter.

TrolMaster LMA-11 Lighting Control Adapter FAQs
What does the TrolMaster LMA-11 do?
The LMA-11 provides the control interface required to connect compatible Phantom ballasts to a TrolMaster lighting-control system. What does the P in Lighting Control Adapter P mean?
The P designation identifies the LMA-11 as the TrolMaster lighting adapter intended for compatible Phantom ballast systems. Which lighting equipment is the LMA-11 designed for?
It is designed for compatible Phantom lighting ballasts. Exact ballast-model compatibility should be confirmed before installation. Can the Hydro-X switch compatible Phantom lighting automatically?
Yes. Once correctly integrated, compatible lighting can follow the lighting schedules programmed into the TrolMaster control system. Can the LMA-11 control ballast output?
Yes, where the connected Phantom ballast supports compatible external output control. The available settings depend on the specific ballast model. Will the LMA-11 work with any electronic ballast?
No. Externally controlled ballasts can use different communication methods. The LMA-11 is intended specifically for compatible Phantom equipment. Can I use the LMA-11 with LED lighting?
Only if the exact lighting equipment is specifically listed as compatible with the LMA-11 control interface. TrolMaster offers other LMA adapters for different LED and ballast control protocols. Does the LMA-11 carry the mains power for the ballast?
No. It is a low-voltage control adapter. The ballast remains connected to its normal mains electrical supply. Does the LMA-11 replace a lighting contactor?
No. The LMA-11 communicates with the ballast's compatible control interface and does not carry or switch the main electrical load of the lighting equipment. Can several Phantom ballasts be controlled together?
Compatible ballasts can be linked as part of a lighting-control network where supported by the equipment. Follow the ballast manufacturer's requirements for control cabling and maximum connected quantities. Why does TrolMaster have several different LMA adapters?
Lighting manufacturers use different control protocols and connections. TrolMaster therefore produces different LMA models to provide the appropriate interface for compatible lighting systems. How do I know whether I need an LMA-11?
Check the exact manufacturer and model of the ballast being controlled. If it is a Phantom ballast supported by TrolMaster's LMA-11 interface, the LMA-11 is the appropriate control adapter. Is the LMA-11 useful for larger lighting installations?
Yes. Centralised control is particularly useful where multiple compatible ballasts need to follow the same lighting schedule and output settings without being adjusted individually.

Unit price perThe TrolMaster LMA-15 is a specialised lighting control adapter designed to connect compatible DLI-controlled lighting fixtures to the TrolMaster Hydro-X environmental control system, enabling centralised switching and dimming through the controller.
Rather than switching the mains supply to the lighting fixtures, the LMA-15 communicates with compatible lighting equipment through its low-voltage DLI control interface. This allows the Hydro-X to manage lighting output while the fixtures remain connected to their normal electrical supply.
Once integrated into a compatible installation, the Hydro-X can control the connected lighting system according to programmed lighting schedules and output settings, bringing lighting management into the same platform used for environmental control.
The LMA-15 is intended specifically for lighting systems using the compatible DLI control protocol. Lighting-control protocols and connections vary considerably between manufacturers, so fixture compatibility should always be confirmed before installation.
Why choose the TrolMaster LMA-15?
Bring lighting into the Hydro-X control system
Environmental control and lighting are closely connected. Lighting affects crop development as well as the heat load placed on the controlled environment, so incorporating lighting into the same control platform can simplify day-to-day management.
The LMA-15 acts as the communication interface between the Hydro-X and a compatible DLI lighting system. The Hydro-X provides the control commands, while the LMA-15 translates those commands into the signal required by the compatible lighting fixtures.
This allows the lighting system to form part of the wider TrolMaster environmental-control installation without requiring the controller itself to carry the electrical load of the fixtures.
Automated dimming control
When used with compatible dimmable fixtures, the LMA-15 allows lighting output to be adjusted through the TrolMaster controller rather than relying solely on manual controls fitted to individual luminaires.
This is particularly useful in installations containing multiple fixtures, where manually adjusting every luminaire can be time-consuming and can make consistent settings more difficult to maintain.
Centralised dimming also provides greater flexibility when different light-output levels are required as a crop develops.
DLI protocol vs Daily Light Integral
In the LMA-15 product name, DLI refers to the lighting control interface used by compatible fixtures. It should not be confused with Daily Light Integral, which is a horticultural measurement describing the total quantity of photosynthetically active light received over a 24-hour period.
The LMA-15 does not itself measure PAR, PPFD or Daily Light Integral. Where actual photosynthetic light measurement is required, TrolMaster's MBS-PAR Full Spectrum Quantum Sensor is designed for that purpose on compatible control systems.
Check lighting compatibility before installation
Lighting manufacturers use several different control protocols and connector arrangements. The LMA-15 should therefore only be used with fixtures specifically compatible with its DLI control interface.
Do not select a lighting adapter purely on the basis that a fixture is dimmable. A fixture may use 0-10V, PWM, RS485, DLI or another manufacturer-specific control method, and the correct TrolMaster adapter must match the lighting system.
If the lighting system uses a different control protocol, another adapter from the TrolMaster LMA range may be required.
How the LMA-15 works
The LMA-15 is installed between the compatible TrolMaster control network and the lighting system's low-voltage control connection.
The lighting fixtures continue to receive their normal mains electrical supply independently. The LMA-15 carries control information only and does not act as a mains contactor or provide operating power to the fixtures.
Where several compatible fixtures are linked together, follow the lighting manufacturer's requirements for control cabling, daisy-chaining and maximum fixture quantities.

TrolMaster LMA-15 Lighting Control Adapter FAQs
What does the TrolMaster LMA-15 do?
The LMA-15 provides an interface between a compatible TrolMaster Hydro-X controller and lighting fixtures using the supported DLI control protocol. Can the LMA-15 dim compatible lights?
Yes. When used with compatible dimmable lighting equipment, the LMA-15 allows lighting output to be controlled through the TrolMaster system. Can the Hydro-X automatically switch the lights on and off?
Yes. Compatible lighting can be operated according to lighting schedules configured through the TrolMaster control system. Does DLI mean Daily Light Integral on the LMA-15?
No. In the context of the LMA-15, DLI identifies the compatible lighting control interface. The adapter does not itself measure Daily Light Integral. Does the LMA-15 measure PAR or PPFD?
No. It is a lighting control adapter rather than a light sensor. PAR and PPFD measurement requires a compatible quantum sensor such as the TrolMaster MBS-PAR. Will the LMA-15 work with any dimmable LED fixture?
No. Dimmable lighting systems can use different communication protocols. The fixture must be compatible with the control interface supported by the LMA-15. Can I use the LMA-15 with a 0-10V light?
Not simply because the fixture is dimmable. TrolMaster produces different LMA adapters for different lighting protocols, so the correct adapter should be selected for the specific fixture. Does the LMA-15 power the lighting fixtures?
No. The lighting fixtures retain their normal mains electrical supply. The LMA-15 handles the low-voltage control signal used to manage compatible fixtures. Does the LMA-15 replace a lighting contactor?
No. It is a control-interface adapter and does not carry the mains electrical load of the connected lighting system. Can multiple compatible lights be controlled together?
Yes, where the lighting system supports linking multiple fixtures through its control network. Always follow the fixture manufacturer's requirements for control cabling and maximum connected fixture quantities. Why use centralised lighting control?
Centralised control allows compatible fixtures to follow common schedules and output settings without manually adjusting each individual luminaire, making larger installations easier to manage consistently. Can lighting output be changed as the crop develops?
Yes. Compatible dimmable lighting can be operated at different output levels through the TrolMaster system, allowing lighting intensity to be adjusted as requirements change. How do I know whether my light needs an LMA-15?
Check the lighting manufacturer's control protocol and TrolMaster's compatibility information for the specific fixture model. The correct LMA adapter is determined by the control interface used by the lighting system.

Unit price perThe TrolMaster LMA-G Group Control Lighting Adapter is designed to divide compatible ThinkGrow Model-I and Model-I Plus LED fixtures into independently controlled lighting groups when used with a compatible TrolMaster lighting control system.
Instead of operating every compatible ThinkGrow fixture as one lighting group, the LMA-G allows separate groups of fixtures to be created. Each group can then be assigned its own lighting settings through a compatible TrolMaster controller.
One LMA-G is required for each lighting group. This gives commercial growers and larger controlled-environment installations much greater flexibility when different sections require separate lighting schedules, output levels or spectrum settings.
The LMA-G features an integrated LCD display for group addressing and is supplied with a 12ft ECS-9 RJ12-to-4-pin connector cable for integration with the ThinkGrow lighting system.
Why choose the TrolMaster LMA-G?
Create independently controlled lighting groups
Large lighting installations do not always need every fixture to operate identically. Different areas may contain crops at different developmental stages, require different light levels or operate on separate production schedules.
The LMA-G allows compatible ThinkGrow fixtures to be organised into separate groups so that the TrolMaster controller can manage those groups independently.
Each lighting group requires one LMA-G. For example, an installation divided into four separately controlled groups would require four LMA-G adapters together with the appropriate compatible TrolMaster lighting-control hardware.
ThinkGrow Model-I & Model-I Plus compatibility
The LMA-G is specifically designed for compatible ThinkGrow Model-I and Model-I Plus single-bar LED fixtures.
It forms part of the TrolMaster/ThinkGrow digital lighting-control system and works alongside the appropriate lighting-control adapter. It is not a universal 0-10V group adapter for unrelated lighting systems.
For grouping compatible lighting systems that use the conventional 0-10V control protocol, TrolMaster offers the separate LMA-14G Group Control Adapter.
Hydro-X Pro & Hydro-X Plus group control
TrolMaster's Hydro-X Pro and Hydro-X Plus controllers provide advanced group-control functionality for compatible ThinkGrow lighting installations.
Up to 10 separate groups of ThinkGrow LEDs can be configured on a compatible controller. This allows different areas of a commercial growing environment to operate with individual lighting settings while remaining part of the same central TrolMaster control system.
Group control can be particularly useful for multi-zone production areas, staggered crop cycles and installations where lighting requirements vary across different sections.
How the LMA-G connects
The LMA-G is designed to operate alongside a compatible TrolMaster lighting-control adapter. The group adapter communicates with the TrolMaster system through an RJ12 connection and interfaces with compatible ThinkGrow fixtures using the supplied ECS-9 cable.
The ECS-9 is a 12ft cable with an RJ12 connection at one end and the appropriate 4-pin ThinkGrow connector at the other.
Once connected, the LCD display on the LMA-G is used for group addressing so the controller can identify the fixtures associated with that particular lighting group.
Important compatibility information
The LMA-G is a group-control accessory. TrolMaster specifies that it must be used with a compatible lighting-control adapter to provide group-control functionality.
It does not supply mains power to the lighting fixtures and should not be treated as a lighting contactor or mains switching device. Fixtures must be powered and installed according to the ThinkGrow lighting-system requirements.
Always confirm the exact ThinkGrow fixture model and TrolMaster controller configuration before specifying adapters for a larger installation.

TrolMaster specifies the LMA-G for ThinkGrow Model-I and Model-I Plus single-bar LED fixtures. How many lighting groups can one LMA-G control?
Each LMA-G controls one lighting group. A separate LMA-G is required for every independently controlled group. How many lighting groups can I create?
Compatible Hydro-X Pro and Hydro-X Plus systems can provide group control for up to 10 separate groups of ThinkGrow LEDs. Why would I divide my lights into separate groups?
Group control allows different sections to operate with individual lighting settings. This is useful where crop stages, production schedules or required light levels vary across an installation. Does the LMA-G work on its own?
No. TrolMaster specifies that the LMA-G must be connected with a compatible lighting-control adapter to provide group-control functionality. Does the LMA-G have a display?
Yes. It has an integrated LCD display used for lighting-group addressing. What cable is supplied with the LMA-G?
The package includes an ECS-9 12ft RJ12-to-4-pin connector cable for connection to the compatible ThinkGrow lighting system. Is the LMA-G a 0-10V lighting adapter?
The LMA-G is specifically designed for compatible ThinkGrow Model-I and Model-I Plus fixtures. TrolMaster's separate LMA-14G is the group-control adapter designed for compatible lighting systems using the 0-10V protocol. Does the LMA-G switch mains power to the lights?
No. The LMA-G forms part of the low-voltage lighting-control network. It does not replace the fixtures' mains electrical supply or associated electrical installation. Can I use multiple LMA-G adapters on one system?
Yes. Multiple adapters are used when several independently controlled lighting groups are required, with one LMA-G assigned to each group. Does the LMA-G support plug-and-play installation?
Yes. TrolMaster describes the LMA-G as a plug-and-play group-control adapter designed for straightforward integration with compatible TrolMaster and ThinkGrow equipment. What is the difference between the LMA-G and LMA-T?
The LMA-T is the primary ThinkGrow lighting-control adapter used to interface compatible ThinkGrow LEDs with the TrolMaster lighting system. The LMA-G is an additional group-control adapter used when compatible fixtures need to be divided into separately controlled groups. Is the LMA-G suitable for commercial multi-zone lighting installations?
Yes. Its group-control function is particularly useful in larger installations where different sections require independent lighting settings while remaining under one central TrolMaster control system.

Unit price perThe TrolMaster MBS-PRO is a professional 4-in-1 environmental sensor combining air temperature, relative humidity, CO2 concentration and day/night light detection in a single unit for the Hydro-X Pro and Hydro-X Plus control systems.
By combining four important environmental measurements into one sensor, the MBS-PRO gives a compatible TrolMaster controller the real-time information required to manage temperature, humidity and CO2 equipment while automatically identifying whether the controlled area is in its light or dark period.
Unlike the MBS-TH used with the original Hydro-X HCS-1, the MBS-PRO incorporates a dedicated CO2 sensor and an onboard LCD display. Current environmental conditions can therefore be checked directly at the sensor as well as through the connected TrolMaster controller.
Multiple MBS-PRO sensors can be positioned throughout larger installations, allowing conditions to be measured at different locations rather than relying on a single environmental reading for the entire area.
Why choose the TrolMaster MBS-PRO?
Four environmental measurements from one sensor
The MBS-PRO combines several measurements that would otherwise require separate environmental sensors. Data is continuously sent to the connected Hydro-X Pro or Hydro-X Plus controller, where it can be used for environmental monitoring and equipment control.
Air temperature
Temperature information can be used by the controller to operate compatible heating, cooling, air-conditioning and ventilation equipment through the appropriate TrolMaster control modules.
Relative humidity
Continuous relative-humidity monitoring allows compatible humidifiers, dehumidifiers and ventilation equipment to respond to changing moisture levels in the air.
CO2 concentration
The integrated CO2 sensor measures carbon dioxide concentration in parts per million (PPM). Compatible TrolMaster control equipment can use this information to manage CO2 supplementation and maintain configured CO2 parameters.
Day/night light detection
The built-in photocell detects whether light is present, allowing the controller to determine whether the environment is in its day or night period.
Day/night sensor, not a PAR meter
The MBS-PRO photocell detects the presence of light, not its intensity. This distinction is important when selecting sensors for a TrolMaster system.
The MBS-PRO tells the controller whether the lights are effectively on or off. It does not measure PAR, PPFD or Daily Light Integral.
For actual photosynthetic light measurement, the separate TrolMaster MBS-PAR Full Spectrum Quantum Sensor is required. Compatible Hydro-X Pro and Hydro-X Plus systems can use the MBS-PAR for advanced light-level and DLI monitoring and control.
Multi-point environmental monitoring
One of the major advantages of the MBS-PRO is its ability to form part of a multi-sensor installation. Environmental conditions can vary considerably across a larger controlled area, particularly around lighting, ventilation outlets, heating and cooling equipment.
Multiple MBS-PRO sensors can therefore be positioned at different locations to provide a better understanding of conditions throughout the environment.
Depending on the controller and configuration, sensor readings can be averaged together or individual sensors can be associated with specific control equipment. This allows the TrolMaster system to respond to conditions in a particular section rather than relying solely on one central reading.
Hydro-X Pro & Hydro-X Plus compatibility
| Hydro-X Pro HCS-2 | Compatible. The HCS-2 supports up to 50 sensors in combination across its compatible sensor types. |
|---|---|
| Hydro-X Plus HCS-3 | Compatible. Up to 6 MBS-PRO sensors can be connected to one HCS-3 system. |
| Original Hydro-X HCS-1 | Not the standard sensor for this controller. The HCS-1 uses the MBS-TH 3-in-1 sensor and separate MBS-S8 CO2 sensor. |
A new Hydro-X Pro or Hydro-X Plus controller is supplied with an MBS-PRO as its primary environmental sensor. This separately supplied unit is therefore ideal for replacing an existing sensor or expanding a compatible system with additional environmental monitoring points.
Important SPH-1 power requirement
TrolMaster specifies that the MBS-PRO requires the SPH-1 Sensor Hub for supplemental power.
This is particularly important when designing or expanding a multi-sensor installation. The SPH-1 provides the additional power and connection capacity required by the MBS-PRO sensor network.
Sensor positioning
Position the MBS-PRO where it can provide a representative measurement of the environmental conditions experienced by the crop.
Avoid locations where readings could be disproportionately affected by direct heating, cooling outlets, humidifiers, dehumidifiers or concentrated CO2 discharge. When several MBS-PRO sensors are installed, positioning them across different sections of the controlled environment can provide more useful information about environmental variation.
The sensor's built-in LCD makes it particularly useful during installation and routine checks because conditions at each individual sensor location can be viewed directly without returning to the main controller.

TrolMaster MBS-PRO 4-in-1 Sensor FAQs
What does the TrolMaster MBS-PRO measure?
The MBS-PRO measures air temperature, relative humidity and CO2 concentration in PPM. It also contains a photocell that detects whether the controlled environment is in its light or dark period. Which controllers use the MBS-PRO?
The MBS-PRO is designed for the TrolMaster Hydro-X Pro HCS-2 and Hydro-X Plus HCS-3 environmental control systems. Does the MBS-PRO measure CO2?
Yes. Unlike the MBS-TH 3-in-1 sensor, the MBS-PRO includes an integrated CO2 sensor that measures carbon dioxide concentration in PPM. Does the MBS-PRO measure PAR or PPFD?
No. Its photocell only detects the presence of light for day/night operation. PAR and PPFD measurement requires the separate TrolMaster MBS-PAR Full Spectrum Quantum Sensor. Does the MBS-PRO have its own display?
Yes. The sensor has a built-in LCD that displays current conditions at the individual sensor location. Can I use more than one MBS-PRO?
Yes. Multiple sensors can be positioned throughout a larger controlled environment to provide readings from different locations. How many MBS-PRO sensors can the Hydro-X Plus use?
The Hydro-X Plus HCS-3 supports up to six MBS-PRO 4-in-1 sensors. How many sensors can the Hydro-X Pro support?
The Hydro-X Pro HCS-2 supports up to 50 compatible sensors in combination, allowing MBS-PRO sensors to form part of a much larger sensor network. Can readings from several sensors be averaged?
Yes. Compatible TrolMaster systems can use multiple environmental sensors together to provide averaged readings, helping provide a more representative measurement across a larger area. Can an MBS-PRO control a specific environmental zone?
On compatible systems, individual sensors can be associated with specific control devices so equipment can respond to conditions measured in a particular section of the controlled environment. Does the MBS-PRO directly switch heaters, fans or CO2 equipment?
No. The sensor provides environmental measurements to the controller. Compatible TrolMaster control modules then operate the connected heating, cooling, humidity, ventilation or CO2 equipment according to the controller settings. Does the MBS-PRO require an SPH-1 Sensor Hub?
Yes. TrolMaster specifies that the MBS-PRO requires the SPH-1 for supplemental power. Is an MBS-PRO already supplied with a new Hydro-X Plus?
Yes. A new Hydro-X Plus HCS-3 includes one MBS-PRO as its main environmental sensor. A separately purchased MBS-PRO can therefore be used as a replacement or to add another monitoring position. What is the difference between the MBS-PRO and MBS-TH?
The MBS-TH is a 3-in-1 temperature, humidity and day/night sensor designed for the original Hydro-X HCS-1. The MBS-PRO adds integrated CO2 measurement and a local LCD display and is designed for the Hydro-X Pro and Hydro-X Plus. Why use multiple environmental sensors?
Temperature, humidity and CO2 can vary across a larger controlled environment. Using multiple sensors allows conditions to be monitored at several locations and can provide more representative data or enable localised environmental control.

Unit price perThe TrolMaster MBS-SD is an optional smoke detection sensor designed to integrate directly with compatible TrolMaster environmental control systems, providing continuous smoke monitoring and remote warning through the TrolMaster system.
When smoke is detected, the MBS-SD communicates with the connected TrolMaster controller so the user can be alerted to a potential problem. On an internet-connected Hydro-X system, an alert can also be sent to the user's smartphone through the TrolMaster app.
Multiple MBS-SD sensors can be installed to monitor different areas. The original Hydro-X HCS-1 supports up to five smoke detectors, allowing coverage to be expanded across a larger controlled environment.
Installation is straightforward using TrolMaster's RJ12 sensor network. The MBS-SD is supplied with a 16ft RJ12 cable and T-Splitter, allowing it to be daisy-chained alongside other compatible TrolMaster sensors.
Why choose the TrolMaster MBS-SD?
Smoke detection integrated with environmental control
Controlled horticultural environments can contain lighting systems, environmental-control equipment, pumps, fans and other electrical devices that may operate for long periods without constant supervision.
The MBS-SD adds smoke detection directly to the TrolMaster monitoring system. If a connected detector identifies smoke, the controller can generate an alarm so the user is made aware of the potential problem.
When remote connectivity is configured, this warning can also be delivered through the TrolMaster smartphone app. This makes the MBS-SD particularly useful for facilities that are not continuously occupied.
Multiple detectors for wider coverage
A single detector may not be appropriate for every installation, particularly where equipment is distributed across a larger space. TrolMaster therefore allows multiple MBS-SD sensors to be connected to compatible controllers.
The original Hydro-X HCS-1 supports up to five MBS-SD smoke detectors. Each detector is connected to the sensor network and assigned an address using the small button built into the unit.
If any connected MBS-SD detects smoke, the Hydro-X can generate a warning to alert the user.
Plug-and-play RJ12 installation
The MBS-SD connects to the controller's sensor network using the supplied RJ12 cable and T-Splitter. Other compatible sensors can be daisy-chained along the same sensor connection using additional T-Splitters and RJ12 cables.
Once connected, the small address-assignment button on the MBS-SD is used to allow the controller to identify the detector.
Position detectors appropriately within the monitored environment and follow the TrolMaster installation instructions when adding multiple sensors.
Sensor care
The MBS-SD should be kept dry and clean. TrolMaster advises against spraying foreign substances onto its sensors or allowing water or condensation to collect on them.
Moisture, contamination or residues entering the sensor can cause incorrect operation or premature failure, so detector placement should take this into account.
Important safety information
The MBS-SD provides additional smoke monitoring as part of a compatible TrolMaster environmental control installation. It should be treated as an additional monitoring and alerting device rather than as a substitute for any smoke alarms, fire detection systems or other life-safety equipment required for the premises.
Appropriate certified fire detection and alarm equipment should always be installed and maintained where required by the building, application and applicable regulations.

Unit price perThe TrolMaster MBS-TH is the replacement 3-in-1 environmental sensor for the Hydro-X HCS-1, combining air temperature, relative humidity and day/night light detection in a single plug-and-play sensor.
The MBS-TH provides the Hydro-X controller with the environmental information it needs to manage compatible heating, cooling, humidification, dehumidification and other climate-control equipment.
Temperature and humidity are continuously measured and reported back to the Hydro-X, while the integrated photocell determines whether the growing area is in its light or dark period. The controller can then use these readings together with compatible TrolMaster Device Stations to automatically manage connected environmental equipment.
This product is supplied as a replacement or spare MBS-TH sensor. A 3-in-1 sensor is already included as standard with a new Hydro-X HCS-1 controller, making this unit ideal for replacing an existing sensor or keeping a spare available for an established installation.
Why choose the TrolMaster MBS-TH?
Temperature & humidity monitoring
Environmental control depends on accurate information about conditions within the crop area. The MBS-TH continuously supplies the Hydro-X with air-temperature and relative-humidity readings, allowing the controller to compare actual conditions against the settings configured by the user.
Compatible TrolMaster control modules can then switch or regulate connected environmental equipment according to those readings. Depending on the equipment and Device Stations installed, a Hydro-X system can be configured to manage heating, cooling, air conditioning, ventilation, humidification and dehumidification.
The MBS-TH therefore acts as one of the primary environmental feedback sensors within a Hydro-X installation.
Built-in day/night photocell
In addition to temperature and humidity, the MBS-TH incorporates a photocell that allows the Hydro-X to identify whether lights are on or off.
The photocell detects the presence of light rather than measuring light intensity. It is therefore used for day/night detection and should not be confused with a PAR or PPFD sensor.
For growers requiring actual photosynthetic light measurement, TrolMaster offers the separate MBS-PAR Full Spectrum Quantum Sensor.
Environmental control with Hydro-X
The MBS-TH itself is a monitoring sensor rather than a switching device. Environmental equipment is controlled through compatible TrolMaster Device Stations connected to the Hydro-X controller.
The controller receives temperature and humidity information from the MBS-TH, compares those readings with the configured environmental settings and then sends the appropriate control commands to the connected Device Stations.
This modular approach allows the Hydro-X system to be configured around the environmental equipment already being used rather than requiring a fixed collection of devices.
Sensor positioning & installation
Position the MBS-TH where it can provide a representative measurement of conditions within the growing environment. Avoid locations directly affected by heaters, air-conditioning outlets, humidifiers or other equipment that could produce an unrepresentative local reading.
The sensor connects to the Hydro-X SENSORS port through the supplied RJ12 cable and T-Splitter. Additional compatible Hydro-X sensors can be daisy-chained using further splitters and RJ12 cabling.
Keep the MBS-TH dry and clean. TrolMaster specifically advises against spraying foreign substances onto the sensor or allowing water or condensation to collect on it, as contamination or moisture can cause premature sensor failure.
Hydro-X compatibility
The MBS-TH is specifically designed as the 3-in-1 environmental sensor for the original TrolMaster Hydro-X HCS-1.
It should not be confused with the MBS-PRO used by the Hydro-X Pro and Hydro-X Plus systems. The MBS-PRO is a different 4-in-1 sensor that additionally measures CO2 concentration.

TrolMaster MBS-TH FAQs
What does the TrolMaster MBS-TH measure?
The MBS-TH measures air temperature and relative humidity and uses a built-in photocell to determine whether the growing environment is in its day or night period. Which TrolMaster controller is the MBS-TH designed for?
The MBS-TH is the 3-in-1 environmental sensor designed for the TrolMaster Hydro-X HCS-1. Does a new Hydro-X HCS-1 already include an MBS-TH?
Yes. The Hydro-X HCS-1 is supplied with an MBS-TH sensor, so this separately supplied product is primarily intended as a replacement or spare. Does the MBS-TH measure light intensity?
No. Its photocell detects whether light is present so the controller can determine day and night operation. It does not provide a PAR, PPFD or other light-intensity measurement. Does the MBS-TH measure PPFD?
No. PPFD measurement requires a suitable quantum sensor such as the TrolMaster MBS-PAR. Does the MBS-TH measure CO2?
No. The MBS-TH measures temperature, humidity and day/night light status. CO2 monitoring on a Hydro-X system requires a compatible separate CO2 sensor. Can the MBS-TH control heating and cooling equipment?
The MBS-TH provides the environmental readings used by the Hydro-X. Actual equipment is controlled through compatible TrolMaster Device Stations connected to the controller. Can it be used for humidity control?
Yes. The MBS-TH provides relative-humidity readings to the Hydro-X, which can then operate compatible humidification or dehumidification equipment through the appropriate control modules. How does the MBS-TH connect to the Hydro-X?
It connects to the Hydro-X sensor network using an RJ12 cable and T-Splitter. What cable is included?
TrolMaster supplies the MBS-TH with a 16ft RJ12 cable and an RJ12 T-Splitter. Can other sensors be connected to the same Hydro-X sensor network?
Yes. Compatible sensors can be daisy-chained through the Hydro-X sensor connection using RJ12 cables and splitters. Where should I position the MBS-TH?
Position it where it can measure representative environmental conditions. Avoid placing it immediately beside equipment or air outlets that could artificially influence temperature or humidity readings. Can the MBS-TH get wet?
No. TrolMaster advises keeping the sensor dry and clean and specifically warns against spraying substances onto it or allowing water or condensation to contact the sensor. Is the MBS-TH the same as the MBS-PRO?
No. The MBS-TH is a 3-in-1 temperature, humidity and day/night sensor for the Hydro-X HCS-1. The MBS-PRO is a different 4-in-1 sensor that also measures CO2 and is designed for TrolMaster's Hydro-X Pro and Hydro-X Plus systems.

Unit price perThe TrolMaster PPH-1 Reservoir pH Sensor provides continuous monitoring of pH within water and nutrient reservoirs when connected to a compatible TrolMaster AMP Sensor Board and control system.
Designed specifically for reservoir monitoring, the PPH-1 allows growers to track changes in the acidity or alkalinity of irrigation water and nutrient solution without relying solely on occasional handheld measurements.
The probe is positioned directly in the reservoir and connects to the appropriate TrolMaster Sensor Board using its BNC connection. Sensor data can then be displayed through the compatible TrolMaster controller and, on connected systems, through the TrolMaster app.
With a 3.6m cable for flexible positioning, the PPH-1 provides a straightforward way to add continuous reservoir pH monitoring to a TrolMaster irrigation and nutrient-management system.
Why choose the TrolMaster PPH-1?
Monitor nutrient solution pH continuously
The pH of a nutrient solution can change after nutrients are mixed and as the solution remains within the reservoir. Plant uptake, source-water characteristics and additions to the reservoir can all contribute to changes over time.
Installing a PPH-1 allows these changes to be monitored continuously through the TrolMaster system. This provides considerably more information than relying on occasional manual measurements alone and makes unexpected changes easier to identify.
On compatible TrolMaster systems, minimum and maximum limits can be configured so that the system can notify the user when monitored pH moves outside the desired range.
Designed for reservoir installation
The PPH-1 is TrolMaster's standard reservoir pH probe. It is designed to be positioned directly within the water or nutrient solution being monitored rather than installed into irrigation pipework.
The integrated 3.6m cable allows the probe to be positioned within the reservoir while the associated AMP Sensor Board and controller can be located appropriately outside the tank.
For applications requiring a more robust commercial-grade reservoir probe, TrolMaster also offers the PPH-2 Heavy-Duty In-Tank pH Sensor. For applications requiring inline installation, the PPH-3 features a threaded body designed for both drop-in and inline use.
TrolMaster controller compatibility
The PPH-1 operates through a compatible TrolMaster AMP Sensor Board. The sensor board required depends on the controller being used.

Unit price perThe TrolMaster WCS-1 Water Content Sensor provides real-time monitoring of the percentage of water and nutrient solution held within the growing medium, helping growers understand irrigation response and substrate dry-back.
Designed for integration with compatible TrolMaster control systems, the WCS-1 uses a multi-prong substrate probe to monitor moisture within the root zone. The current water-content percentage can be viewed directly on the WCS-1 LCD as well as through the connected controller and TrolMaster app.
Rather than relying on irrigation timings alone, growers can see how the substrate responds after watering and how quickly it dries between irrigation events. This information can then be used to refine irrigation frequency, duration and overall watering strategy.
Historical data can also be displayed as a graph through the TrolMaster app, providing a clear picture of wetting and dry-down cycles over time. When multiple WCS-1 sensors are connected to a single Aqua-X, the controller and app display the average reading from the connected sensors.
Why choose the TrolMaster WCS-1?
Monitor irrigation & substrate dry-back
The WCS-1 allows growers to see what happens inside the growing medium following an irrigation event. As water or nutrient solution enters the substrate, the measured water content rises. As plants use water and the substrate dries, the reading falls.
Viewing this cycle over time provides useful information about the actual behaviour of the root zone. This can help identify irrigation events that are too frequent, insufficient dry-back between waterings or periods where the substrate is becoming drier than intended.
The resulting information can be used alongside crop stage, environmental conditions and plant demand when adjusting an irrigation programme.
Calibration for your growing medium
TrolMaster recommends calibrating each WCS-1 to the growing medium and nutrient solution being used. Different substrates can hold water differently, so calibration helps the sensor provide useful readings for the specific irrigation system.
For calibration, the probe should be installed in the growing medium at approximately one-third of the way up from the bottom of the container, or as close to this position as practical.
Fully saturate the growing medium with the nutrient solution normally used for irrigation until runoff occurs. Allow the medium to sit for approximately 2-3 minutes, then press and hold the WCS-1 addressing button for approximately five seconds to perform the calibration.
Use the normal nutrient solution rather than fresh water when calibrating, as the characteristics of the irrigation solution can affect sensor calibration.
Using multiple WCS-1 sensors
A single Aqua-X NFS-1 can support up to eight WCS-1 Water Content Sensors. This allows sensors to be positioned at representative points throughout a larger irrigation system rather than relying on a single measurement location.
When multiple WCS-1 sensors are connected to one Aqua-X, the value displayed by the Aqua-X controller and app is the average of the connected sensor readings.
This can provide a useful overall indication of substrate moisture across the monitored growing area while individual sensor placement helps account for variation between different locations.
